Sending my sincere condolences to Nancy, Tim, Maggie, and Donna, and the rest of Fred's family and friends. The description of the atmosphere at OAS is spot on, based on my experience. I always had a good laugh with Fred when he was in the office and, of course, we talked about golf. He would often catch me out in the hallways without my shoes on and teased that I should not expect any compensation if I stepped on a staple or something. When the time came that I felt compelled to return to Ontario, he tried to get me to stay by offering a one dollar raise. Per hour?, I said. No, he said, per month. Also, he said that he might be able to find some flexibility on the shoe-wearing issue, but no guarantees. Fred's passing will leave a large hole in many lives but memories are wonderful things and last forever. Take care, Carolyn
